I'm active duty in the Air Force and have about 51 months time in service (O-3).
When I was investigating this, I got into the regulations and found one item to perhaps disqualify me from this process. In AR 611-110 in Chapter 2 para 2-1 it says in part b:
b. Have less than 48 months of active Federal commissioned service at the start of flight training and meet the criteria established in paragraph 1–5, above.
Since I'm a new Captain, I have a little over 48 months of active Federal commissioned service. However, I saw in the same paragraph part a says:
a. Be an Active or Reserve Component warrant officer, lieutenant, or Captain, or be in training for a commission.
I bolded Captain, cause this would lead someone to believe that they would take Captains.
Just exploring options, and am curious to see if someone could shed some light on this... thanks!
